Organizational psychologist and leadership consultant Roger Schwarz applies his 30+ years of experience working with leadership teams to reveal how leaders can drastically improve results by changing their individual and team mindset.
Get the results you and your team need. Start by applying the practical wisdom of Smart Leaders, Smarter Teams.

How well does your leadership team work?
Do you and your team consistently achieve the results you want?
Do ineffective problem solving, inability to resolve conflicts, strained relationships, and lack of trust get in the way of what you need to achieve?
Smart Leaders, Smarter Teams introduces Mutual Learning, a comprehensive approach that has enabled Roger Schwarz's clients in global corporations, federal agencies, and nonprofits worldwide to get to the heart of their toughest challenges and significantly improve their results.
In this book, Roger Schwarz addresses a critical question: Why does a group of smart leaders so often create a less-than-smart team?
For thirty years, Schwarz has studied and consulted with leaders who faced challenges in which they were less effective than they wanted to be. Almost all leaders fall into the same unproductive traps stemming from their mindset—deeply ingrained beliefs about how leaders are "supposed" to act.
In challenging situations, most leaders use a unilateral control mindset in which they attempt to make others do what they want them to do. Leaders think they're acting in the best interests of their organization. Yet unilateral control consistently generates subpar results.Unfortunately, leaders are not usually aware of the negative impact this mindset creates.
The antidote to unilateral control is Mutual Learning in which the team works together to shift its values, assumptions, and behaviors so that leadership is invested in the full team—rather than just a formal leader. The approach is based on five core values that fundamentally change the way the team thinks and acts:
Apply the principles of Mutual Learning to your toughest challenges. You and your team will get stuck far less often, achieve higher levels of performance, have better working relationships, and enjoy greater well-being.
